Woman raped after failing to pay $2 to man as compensation for directions in Zimbabwe

A woman was found without clothes by locals after she was raped over $2.
The 22-year-old woman of Buhera, Zimbabwe, was raped by a man after she failed to pay him $2.00 after he gave her directions.
The woman was walking alone on the street when she asked a group of men for directions to the Choto Business Center. One man offered to accompany her and show her
where she needed to go, and the woman happily accepted his offer.
Police spokesperson Luckson Chananda said that after walking about 3 miles, the unknown man demanded $2 as payment for escorting her. When the woman told the man that she had no money, the suspect demanded sex as payment. The man then pulled out a knife and threatened to kill her if she refused to comply with his instructions. She was ordered to remove her clothes and he raped her.
Chananda said the suspect told the woman he wanted to rape her all night. The desperate woman came up with an escape plan. She told the man that she needed to relieve herself. He allowed her to do so without her clothes on, and she took that opportunity to escaped.
Divas Mangoma, 54, of Chuma Village, spotted the naked woman and gave her clothes to wear. She then filed a police report. The suspect is still at large.
“Nowadays, wherever in the world you are, it’s not safe for a woman to walk alone at night. I heard stories of women being raped when they walked by themselves at night in many different countries, even in the busy place in my neighborhood of Central Park in Manhattan,” Carol Green, 43, of New York City told YourJewishNews.com after learning about the incident.
Police are warning women not to travel alone at night. They also warned women to be careful about the people who volunteer to help them because in the end, those people could be out to hurt them.
